I would like to thank all of you who replied to my last question regarding the 
generation of random numbers. I have read much about the theory and have been 
fortunate to find some rng code. Now my task lies in testing the randomness of 
these rng's. In the literature, there are many tests that can be done. Are 
there any of the more sophisticated tests (ie like the birthday spacing, or 
serial correlation test) in R?
I couldn't find any but thought someone with a bit more experience would have 
a better insight.
Thank you
David
